In this assignment we'll create a from-scratch implementation of two fundemental deep learning concepts: the backpropagation algorithm and stochastic gradient descent-based optimizers. In addition, you will create a general-purpose multilayer perceptron, the core building block of deep neural networks. We'll visualize decision bounrdaries and ROC curves in the context of binary classification. Following that we will focus on convolutional networks with residual blocks. We'll create our own network architectures and train them using GPUs on the course servers, then we'll conduct architecture experiments to determine the the effects of different architectural decisions on the performance of deep networks.
hw1, hw2, etc).
You can of course use any editor or IDE to work on these files.In this part, we'll implement backpropagation and automatic differentiation from scratch and compare our implementations to PyTorch's built in implementation (autograd).

test = unittest.TestCase()
Reminder: The backpropagation algorithm is at the core of training deep models. To state the problem we'll tackle in this notebook, imagine we have an L-layer MLP model, defined as $$ \hat{\vec{y}^i} = \vec{y}L^i= \varphi_L \left( \mat{W}_L \varphi{L-1} \left( \cdots \varphi_1 \left( \mat{W}_1 \vec{x}^i + \vec{b}_1 \right) \cdots \right)
L(\vec{\theta}) = \frac{1}{N} \sum_{i=1}^{N} \ell(\vec{y}^i, \hat{\vec{y}^i}) + R(\vec{\theta}) $$
where $\vec{\theta}$ is a vector containing all network parameters, e.g. $\vec{\theta} = \left[ \mat{W}_{1,:}, \vec{b}_1, \dots, \mat{W}_{L,:}, \vec{b}_L \right]$.
In order to train our model we would like to calculate the derivative (or gradient, in the multivariate case) of the loss with respect to each and every one of the parameters, i.e. $\pderiv{L}{\mat{W}_j}$ and $\pderiv{L}{\vec{b}_j}$ for all $j$. Since the gradient "points" to the direction of functional increase, the negative gradient is often used as a descent direction for descent-based optimization algorithms. In other words, iteratively updating each parameter proportianally to it's negetive gradient can lead to convergence to a local minimum of the loss function.
Calculus tells us that as long as we know the derivatives of all the functions "along the way" ($\varphi_i(\cdot),\ \ell(\cdot,\cdot),\ R(\cdot)$) we can use the chain rule to calculate the derivative of the loss with respect to any one of the parameter vectors. Note that if the loss $L(\vec{\theta})$ is scalar (which is usually the case), the gradient of a parameter will have the same shape as the parameter itself (matrix/vector/tensor of same dimensions).
For deep models that are a composition of many functions, calculating the gradient of each parameter by hand and implementing hard-coded gradient derivations quickly becomes infeasible. Additionally, such code makes models hard to change, since any change potentially requires re-derivation and re-implementation of the entire gradient function.
The backpropagation algorithm, which we saw in the lecture, provides us with a effective method of applying the chain rule recursively so that we can implement gradient calculations of arbitrarily deep or complex models.
We'll now implement backpropagation using a modular approach, which will allow us to chain many components layers together and get automatic gradient calculation of the output with respect to the input or any intermediate parameter.
To do this, we'll define a Layer class. Here's the API of this class:
import hw2.layers as layers

In other words, a Layer can be anything: a layer, an activation function, a loss function or generally any computation that we know how to derive a gradient for.
Each Layer must define a forward() function and a backward() function.
forward() function performs the actual calculation/operation of the block and returns an output.backward() function computes the gradient of the input and parameters as a function of the gradient of the output, according to the chain rule.Here's a diagram illustrating the above explanation:
Note that the diagram doesn't show that if the function is parametrized, i.e. $f(\vec{x},\vec{y})=f(\vec{x},\vec{y};\vec{w})$, there are also gradients to calculate for the parameters $\vec{w}$.
The forward pass is straightforward: just do the computation. To understand the backward pass, imagine that there's some "downstream" loss function $L(\vec{\theta})$ and magically somehow we are told the gradient of that loss with respect to the output $\vec{z}$ of our block, i.e. $\pderiv{L}{\vec{z}}$.
Now, since we know how to calculate the derivative of $f(\vec{x},\vec{y};\vec{w})$, it means we know how to calculate $\pderiv{\vec{z}}{\vec{x}}$, $\pderiv{\vec{z}}{\vec{y}}$ and $\pderiv{\vec{z}}{\vec{w}}$ . Thanks to the chain rule, this is all we need to calculate the gradients of the loss w.r.t. the input and parameters:
$$ \begin{align} \pderiv{L}{\vec{x}} &= \pderiv{L}{\vec{z}}\cdot \pderiv{\vec{z}}{\vec{x}}\\ \pderiv{L}{\vec{y}} &= \pderiv{L}{\vec{z}}\cdot \pderiv{\vec{z}}{\vec{y}}\\ \pderiv{L}{\vec{w}} &= \pderiv{L}{\vec{z}}\cdot \pderiv{\vec{z}}{\vec{w}} \end{align} $$PyTorch has the nn.Module base class, which may seem to be similar to our Layer since it also represents a computation element in a network.
However PyTorch's nn.Modules don't compute the gradient directly, they only define the forward calculations.
Instead, PyTorch has a more low-level API for defining a function and explicitly implementing it's forward() and backward(). See autograd.Function.
When an operation is performed on a tensor, it creates a Function instance which performs the operation and
stores any necessary information for calculating the gradient later on. Additionally, Functionss point to the
other Function objects representing the operations performed earlier on the tensor. Thus, a graph (or DAG)
of operations is created (this is not 100% exact, as the graph is actually composed of a different type of class which wraps the backward method, but it's accurate enough for our purposes).
A Tensor instance which was created by performing operations on one or more tensors with requires_grad=True, has a grad_fn property which is a Function instance representing the last operation performed to produce this tensor.
This exposes the graph of Function instances, each with it's own backward() function. Therefore, in PyTorch the backward() function is called on the tensors, not the modules.
Our Layers are therefore a combination of the ideas in Module and Function and we'll implement them together,
just to make things simpler.
Our goal here is to create a "poor man's autograd": We'll use PyTorch tensors,
but we'll calculate and store the gradients in our Layers (or return them).
The gradients we'll calculate are of the entire block, not individual operations on tensors.
To test our implementation, we'll use PyTorch's autograd.
Note that of course this method of tracking gradients is much more limited than what PyTorch offers. However it allows us to implement the backpropagation algorithm very simply and really see how it works.
Let's set up some testing instrumentation:
from hw2.grad_compare import compare_layer_to_torch
def test_block_grad(block: layers.Layer, x, y=None, delta=1e-3):
diffs = compare_layer_to_torch(block, x, y)
# Assert diff values
for diff in diffs:
test.assertLess(diff, delta)
# Show the compare function
compare_layer_to_torch??
Notes:
compare_layer_to_torch() function. It will help you understand what PyTorch is doing.delta above is should not be needed. A correct implementation will give you a diff of exactly zero.We'll now implement some Layers that will enable us to later build an MLP model of arbitrary depth, complete with automatic differentiation.
For each block, you'll first implement the forward() function.
Then, you will calculate the derivative of the block by hand with respect to each of its
input tensors and each of its parameter tensors (if any).
Using your manually-calculated derivation, you can then implement the backward() function.
Notice that we have intermediate Jacobians that are potentially high dimensional tensors. For example in the expression $\pderiv{L}{\vec{w}} = \pderiv{L}{\vec{z}}\cdot \pderiv{\vec{z}}{\vec{w}}$, the term $\pderiv{\vec{z}}{\vec{w}}$ is a 4D Jacobian if both $\vec{z}$ and $\vec{w}$ are 2D matrices.
In order to implement the backpropagation algorithm efficiently, we need to implement every backward function without explicitly constructing this Jacobian. Instead, we're interested in directly calculating the vector-Jacobian product (VJP) $\pderiv{L}{\vec{z}}\cdot \pderiv{\vec{z}}{\vec{w}}$. In order to do this, you should try to figure out the gradient of the loss with respect to one element, e.g. $\pderiv{L}{\vec{w}_{1,1}}$ and extrapolate from there how to directly obtain the VJP.
ReLU, or rectified linear unit is a very common activation function in deep learning architectures. In it's most standard form, as we'll implement here, it has no parameters.
We'll first implement the "leaky" version, defined as
$$ \mathrm{relu}(\vec{x}) = \max(\alpha\vec{x},\vec{x}), \ 0\leq\alpha<1 $$This is similar to the ReLU activation we've seen in class, only that it has a small non-zero slope then it's input is negative. Note that it's not strictly differentiable, however it has sub-gradients, defined separately any positive-valued input and for negative-valued input.

The sigmoid function $\sigma(x)$ is also sometimes used as an activation function. We have also seen it previously in the context of logistic regression.

First, we'll implement an affine transform layer, also known as a fully connected layer.

As you know by know, cross-entropy is a common loss function for classification tasks. In class, we defined it as
$$\ell_{\mathrm{CE}}(\vec{y},\hat{\vec{y}}) = - {\vectr{y}} \log(\hat{\vec{y}})$$where $\hat{\vec{y}} = \mathrm{softmax}(x)$ is a probability vector (the output of softmax on the class scores $\vec{x}$) and the vector $\vec{y}$ is a 1-hot encoded class label.
However, it's tricky to compute the gradient of softmax, so instead we'll define a version of cross-entropy that produces the exact same output but works directly on the class scores $\vec{x}$.
We can write, $$\begin{align} \ell_{\mathrm{CE}}(\vec{y},\hat{\vec{y}}) &= - {\vectr{y}} \log(\hat{\vec{y}}) = - {\vectr{y}} \log\left(\mathrm{softmax}(\vec{x})\right) \\ &= - {\vectr{y}} \log\left(\frac{e^{\vec{x}}}{\sum_k e^{x_k}}\right) \\ &= - \log\left(\frac{e^{x_y}}{\sum_k e^{x_k}}\right) \\ &= - \left(\log\left(e^{x_y}\right) - \log\left(\sum_k e^{x_k}\right)\right)\\ &= - x_y + \log\left(\sum_k e^{x_k}\right) \end{align}$$
Where the scalar $y$ is the correct class label, so $x_y$ is the correct class score.
Note that this version of cross entropy is also what's provided by PyTorch's nn module.

Now that we have some working Layers, we can build an MLP model of arbitrary depth and compute end-to-end gradients.
First, lets copy an idea from PyTorch and implement our own version of the nn.Sequential Module.
This is a Layer which contains other Layers and calls them in sequence. We'll use this to build our MLP model.
TODO: Complete the implementation of the Sequential class in the hw2/layers.py module.
# Test Sequential
# Let's create a long sequence of layers and see
# whether we can compute end-to-end gradients of the whole thing.

Now, equipped with a Sequential, all we have to do is create an MLP architecture.
We'll define our MLP with the following hyperparameters:
So the architecture will be:
FC($D$, $h_1$) $\rightarrow$ ReLU $\rightarrow$ FC($h_1$, $h_2$) $\rightarrow$ ReLU $\rightarrow$ $\cdots$ $\rightarrow$ FC($h_{L-1}$, $h_L$) $\rightarrow$ ReLU $\rightarrow$ FC($h_{L}$, $C$)
We'll also create a sequence of the above MLP and a cross-entropy loss, since it's the gradient of the loss that we need in order to train a model.

Suppose we have a linear (i.e. fully-connected) layer with a weight tensor $\mat{W}$, defined with in_features=1024 and out_features=512. We apply this layer to an input tensor $\mat{X}$ containing a batch of N=64 samples. The output of the layer is denoted as $\mat{Y}$.

1.A - the shape of the input is 64X1024. the shape of the output is 64X512. the shape of the Jacobian is therefore 64X512x1024
Is back-propagation required in order to train neural networks with decent-based optimization? Why or why not?
display_answer(hw2.answers.part1_q2)
Your answer:
backprop is just a way for efficient calculations of gradients and therefore is it not the only way to perform decent-based optimization and it is not required in a decent-based training. for example, we saw in the tutorial that it is possible to use Forward mode AD instead. (there are also other methods. for example - https://arxiv.org/abs/2202.08587). however, the use of chaine-rule, computational graphs and automatic differentiation makes backprop the method that gives the best trade-off of efficiency and accuracy in a scenario of heavy computations and it is the most used optimization method in the field of deep learning
In this part we will learn how to implement optimization algorithms for deep networks. Additionally, we'll learn how to write training loops and implement a modular model trainer. We'll use our optimizers and training code to test a few configurations for classifying images with an MLP model.

In the context of deep learning, an optimization algorithm is some method of iteratively updating model parameters so that the loss converges toward some local minimum (which we hope will be good enough).
Gradient descent-based methods are by far the most popular algorithms for optimization of neural network parameters. However the high-dimensional loss-surfaces we encounter in deep learning applications are highly non-convex. They may be riddled with local minima, saddle points, large plateaus and a host of very challenging "terrain" for gradient-based optimization. This gave rise to many different methods of performing the parameter updates based on the loss gradients, aiming to tackle these optimization challenges.
The most basic gradient-based update rule can be written as,
$$ \vec{\theta} \leftarrow \vec{\theta} - \eta \nabla_{\vec{\theta}} L(\vec{\theta}; \mathcal{D}) $$where $\mathcal{D} = \left\{ (\vec{x}^i, \vec{y}^i) \right\}_{i=1}^{M}$ is our training dataset or part of it. Specifically, if we have in total $N$ training samples, then
The intuition behind gradient descent is simple: since the gradient of a multivariate function points to the direction of steepest ascent ("uphill"), we move in the opposite direction. A small step size $\eta$ known as the learning rate is required since the gradient can only serve as a first-order linear approximation of the function's behaviour at $\vec{\theta}$ (recall e.g. the Taylor expansion). However in truth our loss surface generally has nontrivial curvature caused by a high order nonlinear dependency on $\vec{\theta}$. Thus taking a large step in the direction of the gradient is actually just as likely to increase the function value.
The idea behind the stochastic versions is that by constantly changing the samples we compute the loss with, we get a dynamic error surface, i.e. it's different for each set of training samples. This is thought to generally improve the optimization since it may help the optimizer get out of flat regions or sharp local minima since these features may disappear in the loss surface of subsequent batches. The image below illustrates this. The different lines are different 1-dimensional losses for different training set-samples.
Deep learning frameworks generally provide implementations of various gradient-based optimization algorithms.
Here we'll implement our own optimization module from scratch, this time keeping a similar API to the PyTorch optim package.
We define a base Optimizer class. An optimizer holds a set of parameter tensors (these are the trainable parameters of some model) and maintains internal state. It may be used as follows:
zero_grad() function is invoked to clear the parameter gradients computed by previous iterations.step() function is invoked in order to update the value of each parameter based on it's gradient.The exact method of update is implementation-specific for each optimizer and may depend on its internal state. In addition, adding the regularization penalty to the gradient is handled by the optimizer since it only depends on the parameter values (and not the data).
Here's the API of our Optimizer:

Let's start by implementing the simplest gradient based optimizer. The update rule will be exacly as stated above, but we'll also add a L2-regularization term to the gradient. Remember that in the loss function, the L2 regularization term is expressed by
$$R(\vec{\theta}) = \frac{1}{2}\lambda||\vec{\theta}||^2_2.$$TODO: Complete the implementation of the VanillaSGD class in the hw2/optimizers.py module.
# Test VanillaSGD

p = torch.randn(500, 10)
dp = torch.randn(*p.shape)*2
params = [(p, dp)]
vsgd = optimizers.VanillaSGD(params, learn_rate=0.5, reg=0.1)
vsgd.step()
expected_p = torch.load('tests/assets/expected_vsgd.pt')
diff = torch.norm(p-expected_p).item()
print(f'diff={diff}')
test.assertLess(diff, 1e-3)
diff=1.0932822078757454e-06
Now that we can build a model and loss function, compute their gradients and we have an optimizer, we can finally do some training!
In the spirit of more modular software design, we'll implement a class that will aid us in automating the repetitive training loop code that we usually write over and over again. This will be useful for both training our Layer-based models and also later for training PyTorch nn.Modules.

The Trainer class splits the task of training (and evaluating) models into three conceptual levels,
fit method, which returns a FitResult containing losses and accuracies for all epochs.train_epoch and test_epoch methods, which return an EpochResult containing losses per batch and the single accuracy result of the epoch.train_batch and test_batch methods, which return a BatchResult containing a single loss and the number of correctly classified samples in the batch.It implements the first two levels. Inheriting classes are expected to implement the single-batch level methods since these are model and/or task specific.
The first thing we should do in order to verify our model, gradient calculations and optimizer implementation is to try to overfit a large model (many parameters) to a small dataset (few images). This will show us that things are working properly.
Let's begin by loading the CIFAR-10 dataset.
data_dir = os.path.expanduser('~/.pytorch-datasets')
ds_train = torchvision.datasets.CIFAR10(root=data_dir, download=True, train=True, transform=tvtf.ToTensor())
ds_test = torchvision.datasets.CIFAR10(root=data_dir, download=True, train=False, transform=tvtf.ToTensor())
print(f'Train: {len(ds_train)} samples')
print(f'Test: {len(ds_test)} samples')
Files already downloaded and verified Files already downloaded and verified Train: 50000 samples Test: 10000 samples
Now, let's implement just a small part of our training logic since that's what we need right now.

Tweak the hyperparameter values until your model overfits a small number of samples in the code block below. You should get 100% accuracy within a few epochs.The following code block will use your custom Layer-based MLP implentation, custom Vanilla SGD and custom trainer to overfit the data. The classification accuracy should be 100% within a few epochs.

res = trainer.train_epoch(dl_train, max_batches=max_batches)
best_acc = res.accuracy if res.accuracy > best_acc else best_acc
test.assertGreaterEqual(best_acc, 98)
Now that we know training works, let's try to fit a model to a bit more data for a few epochs, to see how well we're doing. First, we need a function to plot the FitResults object.

The simple vanilla SGD update is rarely used in practice since it's very slow to converge relative to other optimization algorithms.
One reason is that naïvely updating in the direction of the current gradient causes it to fluctuate wildly in areas where the loss surface in some dimensions is much steeper than in others. Another reason is that using the same learning rate for all parameters is not a great idea since not all parameters are created equal. For example, parameters associated with rare features should be updated with a larger step than ones associated with commonly-occurring features because they'll get less updates through the gradients.
Therefore more advanced optimizers take into account the previous gradients of a parameter and/or try to use a per-parameter specific learning rate instead of a common one.
Let's now implement a simple and common optimizer: SGD with Momentum. This optimizer takes previous gradients of a parameter into account when updating it's value instead of just the current one. In practice it usually provides faster convergence than the vanilla SGD.
The SGD with Momentum update rule can be stated as follows: $$\begin{align} \vec{v}_{t+1} &= \mu \vec{v}_t - \eta \delta \vec{\theta}_t \\ \vec{\theta}_{t+1} &= \vec{\theta}_t + \vec{v}_{t+1} \end{align}$$
Where $\eta$ is the learning rate, $\vec{\theta}$ is a model parameter, $\delta \vec{\theta}_t=\pderiv{L}{\vec{\theta}}(\vec{\theta}_t)$ is the gradient of the loss w.r.t. to the parameter and $0\leq\mu<1$ is a hyperparameter known as momentum.
Expanding the update rule recursively shows us now the parameter update infact depends on all previous gradient values for that parameter, where the old gradients are exponentially decayed by a factor of $\mu$ at each timestep.
Since we're incorporating previous gradient (update directions), a noisy value of the current gradient will have less effect so that the general direction of previous updates is maintained somewhat. The following figure illustrates this.

This is another optmizer that accounts for previous gradients, but this time it uses them to adapt the learning rate per parameter.
RMSProp maintains a decaying moving average of previous squared gradients, $$ \vec{r}_{t+1} = \gamma\vec{r}_{t} + (1-\gamma)\delta\vec{\theta}_t^2 $$ where $0<\gamma<1$ is a decay constant usually set close to $1$, and $\delta\vec{\theta}_t^2$ denotes element-wise squaring.
The update rule for each parameter is then, $$ \vec{\theta}_{t+1} = \vec{\theta}_t - \left( \frac{\eta}{\sqrt{r_{t+1}+\varepsilon}} \right) \delta\vec{\theta}_t $$
where $\varepsilon$ is a small constant to prevent numerical instability. The idea here is to decrease the learning rate for parameters with high gradient values and vice-versa. The decaying moving average prevents accumulating all the past gradients which would cause the effective learning rate to become zero.

Note that you should get better train/test accuracy with Momentum and RMSProp than Vanilla.
Dropout is a useful technique to improve generalization of deep models.
The idea is simple: during the forward pass drop, i.e. set to to zero, the activation of each neuron, with a probability of $p$. For example, if $p=0.4$ this means we drop the activations of 40% of the neurons (on average).
There are a few important things to note about dropout:
TODO:

To see whether dropout really improves generalization, let's take a small training set (small enough to overfit) and a large test set and check whether we get less overfitting and perhaps improved test-set accuracy when using dropout.

Compare in detail between gradient descent (GD) and stochastic gradient descent (SGD).
Why is SGD used more often in the practice of deep learning? Provide a few justifications.
You would like to try GD to train your model instead of SGD, but you're concerned that your dataset won't fit in memory.

A multilayer-perceptron is arguably a the most basic type of neural network model. It is composed of $L$ layers, each layer $l$ with $n_l$ perceptron ("neuron") units. Each perceptron is connected to all ouputs of the previous layer (or all inputs in the first layer), calculates their weighted sum, applies a linearity and produces a single output.

Each layer $l$ operates on the output of the previous layer ($\vec{y}_{l-1}$) and calculates:
$$ \vec{y}_l = \varphi\left( \mat{W}_l \vec{y}_{l-1} + \vec{b}_l \right),~ \mat{W}_l\in\set{R}^{n_{l}\times n_{l-1}},~ \vec{b}_l\in\set{R}^{n_l},~ l \in \{1,2,\dots,L\}. $$To begin, let's implement a general multi-layer perceptron model. We'll seek to implement it in a way which is both general in terms of architecture, and also composable so that we can use our MLP in the context of larger models.
TODO: Implement the MLP class in the hw2/mlp.py module.
from hw2.mlp import MLP

The MLP model we've implemented, while useful, is very general. For the task of binary classification, we would like to add some additional functionality to it: the ability to output a normalized score for a sample being in class one (which we interpret as a probability) and a prediction based on some threshold of this probability. In addition, we need some way to calculate a meaningful threshold based on the data and a trained model at hand.
In order to maintain generality, we'll add this functionlity in the form of a wrapper: A BinaryClassifier class that can wrap any model producing two output features, and provide the the functionality stated above.
TODO: In the hw2/classifier.py module, implement the BinaryClassifier and the missing parts of its base class, Classifier. Read the method documentation carefully and implement accordingly.
You can ignore the roc_threshold method at this stage.

Now that we have a classifier, we need to train it.
We will abstract the various aspects of training such as mlutiple epochs, iterating over batches, early stopping and saving model checkpoints, into a Trainer that will take care of these concerns.
The Trainer class splits the task of training (and evaluating) models into three conceptual levels,
fit method, which returns a FitResult containing losses and accuracies for all epochs.train_epoch and test_epoch methods, which return an EpochResult containing losses per batch and the single accuracy result of the epoch.train_batch and test_batch methods, which return a BatchResult containing a single loss and the number of correctly classified samples in the batch.It implements the first two levels. Inheriting classes are expected to implement the single-batch level methods since these are model and/or task specific.
TODO:
Implement the Trainer's fit method and the ClassifierTrainer's train_batch/test_batch methods, in the hw2/training.py module. You may ignore the Optional parts about early stopping an model checkpoints at this stage.
Set the model's architecture hyper-parameters and the optimizer hyperparameters in part3_arch_hp() and part3_optim_hp(), respectively, in hw2/answers.py.
Since this is a toy dataset, you should be able to quickly get above 85% accuracy even on the test set.

An important part of understanding what a non-linear classifier like our MLP is doing is visualizing it's decision boundaries. When we only have two input features, these are relatively simple to visualize, since we can simply plot our data on the plane, and evaluate our classifier on a constant 2D grid in order to approximate the decision boundary.
TODO: Implement the plot_decision_boundary_2d function in the hw2/classifier.py module.
from hw2.classifier import plot_decision_boundary_2d
fig, ax = plot_decision_boundary_2d(model, *dl_valid.dataset.tensors)

Another important component, especially in the context of binary classification is threshold selection. Until now, we arbitrarily chose a threshold of 0.5 when deciding the class label based on the probability score we calculated via softmax. In other words, we classified a sample to class 1 (the 'positive' class) when it's probability score was greater or equal to 0.5.
However, in real-world classifiction problems we'll need to choose our threshold wisely based on the domain-specific requirements of the problem. For example, depending on our application, we might care more about high sensitivity (correctly classifying positive examples), while for other applications specificity (correctly classifying negative examples) is more important.
One way to understand the mistakes a model is making is to look at its Confusion Matrix. From it, we easily see e.g. the false-negative rate (FNR) and false-positive rate (FPR).
Let's look at the confusion matrices on the test and validation data using the model we trained above.
from sklearn.metrics import confusion_matrix, ConfusionMatrixDisplay
def plot_confusion(classifier, x: np.ndarray, y: np.ndarray, ax=None):
y_hat = classifier.classify(torch.from_numpy(x).to(torch.float32)).numpy()
conf_mat = confusion_matrix(y, y_hat, normalize='all')
ConfusionMatrixDisplay(conf_mat).plot(ax=ax, colorbar=False)
model.threshold = 0.5
_, axes = plt.subplots(1, 2, figsize=(10, 5))
axes[0].set_title("Train"); axes[1].set_title("Validation");
plot_confusion(model, X_train, y_train, ax=axes[0])
plot_confusion(model, X_valid, y_valid, ax=axes[1])
/home/ilay.kamai/cs236781-hw2/hw2/mlp.py:77: UserWarning: Implicit dimension choice for softmax has been deprecated. Change the call to include dim=X as an argument. x = l(x)
We can see that the model makes a different number of false-posiive and false-negative errors. Clearly, this proportion would change if the classification threshold was different.
A very common way to select the classification threshold is to find a threshold which optimally balances between the FPR and FNR.
This can be done by plotting the model's ROC curve, which shows 1-FNR vs. FPR for multiple threshold values, and selecting the point closest to the ideal point ((0, 1)).
TODO: Implement the select_roc_thresh function in the hw2.classifier module.
from hw2.classifier import select_roc_thresh
optimal_thresh = select_roc_thresh(model, *dl_valid.dataset.tensors, plot=True)
/home/ilay.kamai/cs236781-hw2/hw2/mlp.py:77: UserWarning: Implicit dimension choice for softmax has been deprecated. Change the call to include dim=X as an argument. x = l(x)
Let's see the effect of our threshold selection on the confusion matrix and decision boundary.
model.threshold = optimal_thresh
_, axes = plt.subplots(1, 2, figsize=(10, 5))
axes[0].set_title("Train"); axes[1].set_title("Validation");
plot_confusion(model, X_train, y_train, ax=axes[0])

Now, equipped with the tools we've implemented so far we'll expertiment with various MLP architectures. We'll seek to study the effect of the models depth (number of hidden layers) and width (number of neurons per hidden layer) on the its decision boundaries and the resulting performance. After training, we will use the validation set for threshold selection, and seek to maximize the performance on the test set.

Explain your answers for each of the above. Since this is a qualitative question, assume "high" simply means "I would take measures in order to decrease it further".
display_answer(hw2.answers.part3_q1)
Your answer:
Consider the first binary classifier you trained in this notebook and the confusion matrices we plotted for it.
For the validation dataset, would you expect the FPR or the FNR to be higher, and why? Recall that you have full knowledge of the data generating process.
display_answer(hw2.answers.part3_q2)
Your answer:
for the model we trained at the beginning of the notebook, we expect the validation set to have more FNR than FPR. this is because we can see that the model's decision boundary is over-estimating the area of class 0 (regions that the model marked as class 0 and has points from class 1) i.e the probabilty for the model to classify sample with label 1 as 0 is higher than the opposite case (classifiying sample with label 0 as 1). since those mistakes are False negatives we assuming that the FNR would be higher than FPR. In general, if you know exactily how the data was generated, we can estimate the FNR and FPR based on the model decision boundary.
You're training a binary classifier screening of a large cohort of patients for some disease, with the aim to detect the disease early, before any symptoms appear. You train the model on easy-to-obtain features, so screening each individual patient is simple and low-cost. In case the model classifies a patient as sick, she must then be sent to furhter testing in order to confirm the illness. Assume that these further tests are expensive and involve high-risk to the patient. Assume also that once diagnosed, a low-cost treatment exists.
You wish to screen as many people as possible at the lowest possible cost and loss of life. Would you still choose the same "optimal" point on the ROC curve as above? If not, how would you choose it? Answer these questions for two possible scenarios:
Explain your answers.
display_answer(hw2.answers.part3_q3)
Your answer:
the "optimal" point on the ROC curve may not be the best choice in this situation, as the "naive" ROC curve do not take into account the costs and risks associated with false positive and false negative classifications.
In scenario 1, where the disease leads to non-lethal symptoms, the cost of a false positive classification (i.e. diagnosing a healthy patient as sick) is high , as it results in a unnecessary expensive and risky confirmation test. However, the cost of a false negative classification (i.e. failing to diagnose a sick patient) is low, as the symptoms are easy to detect and not dangerous. Therefore, in this scenario, it may be better to choose a classification threshold that maximizes sensitivity (i.e. minimizing false positive) even if it comes at the cost of increased false negative.
In scenario 2, where the disease may lead to high risk of death if not diagnosed early, the cost of a false negative classification is very high, as it may result in delayed treatment and death. Therefore, it may be better to choose a classification threshold that maximizes specificity (i.e. minimizing false positives) even if it comes at the cost of increased false negatives.

Convolutional layers are the most essential building blocks of the state of the art deep learning image classification models and also play an important role in many other tasks. As we saw in the tutorial, when applied to images, convolutional layers operate on and produce volumes (3D tensors) of activations.
A convenient way to interpret convolutional layers for images is as a collection of 3D learnable filters, each of which operates on a small spatial region of the input volume. Each filter is convolved with the input volume ("slides over it"), and a dot product is computed at each location followed by a non-linearity which produces one activation. All these activations produce a 2D plane known as a feature map. Multiple feature maps (one for each filter) comprise the output volume.
A crucial property of convolutional layers is their translation equivariance, i.e. shifting the input results in and equivalently shifted output. This produces the ability to detect features regardless of their spatial location in the input.
Convolutional network architectures usually follow a pattern basic repeating blocks: one or more convolution layers, each followed by a non-linearity (generally ReLU) and then a pooling layer to reduce spatial dimensions. Usually, the number of convolutional filters increases the deeper they are in the network. These layers are meant to extract features from the input. Then, one or more fully-connected layers is used to combine the extracted features into the required number of output class scores.
PyTorch provides all the basic building blocks needed for creating a convolutional arcitecture within the torch.nn package.
Let's use them to create a basic convolutional network with the following architecture pattern:
[(CONV -> ACT)*P -> POOL]*(N/P) -> (FC -> ACT)*M -> FC
Here $N$ is the total number of convolutional layers, $P$ specifies how many convolutions to perform before each pooling layer and $M$ specifies the number of hidden fully-connected layers before the final output layer.
TODO: Complete the implementaion of the CNN class in the hw2/cnn.py module.
Use PyTorch's nn.Conv2d and nn.MaxPool2d for the convolution and pooling layers.
It's recommended to implement the missing functionality in the order of the class' methods.

A very common addition to the basic convolutional architecture described above are shortcut connections. First proposed by He et al. (2016), this simple addition has been shown to be a crucial ingredient in order to achieve effective learning with very deep networks. Virtually all state of the art image classification models from recent years use this technique.
The idea is to add a shortcut, or skip, around every two or more convolutional layers:
On the left we see an example of a regular Residual Block, that takes a 64 channel input, and performs two 3X3 convolutions , which are added to the original input.
On the right we see an exapmle of a Bottleneck Residual Block, that takes a 256 channel input, projects it to a 64 channel tensor with a 1X1 convolution, then performs an inner 3X3 convolution, followd by another 1X1 projection convolution back to the original numer of channels, 256. The output is then added to the original input.
Overall, we can denote the structure of the bottleneck channels in the given example as 256->64->64->256, where the first and last arrows denote the 1X1 convolutions, and the middle arrow is the inner convolution. Note that the 1X1 convolution with the default parameters (in pytorch) is defined such that the only dimension of the tensor that changes is the number of channels.
This adds an easy way for the network to learn identity mappings: set the weight values to be very small. The outcome is that the convolutional layers learn a residual mapping, i.e. some delta that is applied to the identity map, instead of actually learning a completely new mapping from scratch.
Lets start by implementing a general residual block, representing a structure similar to the above diagrams. Our residual block will be composed of:
1x1 convolution to project the channel dimension.TODO: Complete the implementation of the ResidualBlock's __init__() method in the hw2/cnn.py module.

In the ResNet Block diagram shown above, the right block is called a bottleneck block. This type of block is mainly used deep in the network, where the feature space becomes increasingly high-dimensional (i.e. there are many channels).
Instead of applying a KxK conv layer on the original input channels, a bottleneck block first projects to a lower number of features (channels), applies the KxK conv on the result, and then projects back to the original feature space. Both projections are performed with 1x1 convolutions.

Consider the bottleneck block from the right side of the ResNet diagram above. Compare it to a regular block that performs a two 3x3 convs directly on the 256-channel input (i.e. as shown in the left side of the diagram, with a different number of channels). Explain the differences between the regular block and the bottleneck block in terms of:
display_answer(hw2.answers.part4_q1)
Your answer:
for the regular block we have two layers with kernel 3x3 and 256 input and output channels that gives (including bias): $(3*3*256+1)*256*2=1180160$ for the bottleneck we have 3 layers. number of parameters is: $(1*1*256+1)*64+ (3*3*64+1)*64 + (1*1*64 + 1)*256=70016$ for the bottleneck. We see that also the bottleneck block has more layers, it has much fewer parameters in total
The bottleneck block requires fewer floating point operations than the regular block. This is because the 1x1 convolutions reduce and then increase the number of channels, allowing for more efficient computation of the subsequent 3x3 convolution. Therefore, the bottleneck block requires fewer computations and has lower computational complexity than the regular block.
Spatially within Feature Maps: as both blocks has convolutions with the same kernel size (3x3), both can combine inputs spatially within feature maps by applying the convolution operation. the 1x1 convolution is of no benefit since it has no spatial resolution.
In this part we will explore convolution networks and the effects of their architecture on accuracy. We'll use our deep CNN implementation and perform various experiments on it while varying the architecture. Then we'll implement our own custom architecture to see whether we can get high classification results on a large subset of CIFAR-10.
Training will be performed on GPU.

plt.rcParams.update({'font.size': 12})
test = unittest.TestCase()
We will now perform a series of experiments that train various model configurations on a part of the CIFAR-10 dataset.
To perform the experiments, you'll need to use a machine with a GPU since training time might be too long otherwise.
Here's an example of running a forward pass on the GPU (assuming you're running this notebook on a GPU-enabled machine).
from hw2.cnn import ResNet
net = ResNet(
in_size=(3,100,100), out_classes=10, channels=[32, 64]*3,
pool_every=4, hidden_dims=[100]*2,
pooling_type='avg', pooling_params=dict(kernel_size=2),
)
net = net.to(device)
test_image = torch.randint(low=0, high=256, size=(3, 100, 100), dtype=torch.float).unsqueeze(0)
test_image = test_image.to(device)
test_out = net(test_image)
Notice how we called .to(device) on both the model and the input tensor.
Here the device is a torch.device object that we created above. If an nvidia GPU is available on the machine you're running this on, the device will be 'cuda'. When you run .to(device) on a model, it recursively goes over all the model parameter tensors and copies their memory to the GPU. Similarly, calling .to(device) on the input image also copies it.
In order to train on a GPU, you need to make sure to move all your tensors to it. You'll get errors if you try to mix CPU and GPU tensors in a computation.
print(f'This notebook is running with device={device}')
print(f'The model parameter tensors are also on device={next(net.parameters()).device}')
print(f'The test image is also on device={test_image.device}')
print(f'The output is therefore also on device={test_out.device}')
This notebook is running with device=cpu The model parameter tensors are also on device=cpu The test image is also on device=cpu The output is therefore also on device=cpu
First, please read the course servers guide carefully.
To run the experiments on the course servers, you can use the py-sbatch.sh script directly to perform a single experiment run in batch mode (since it runs python once), or use the srun command to do a single run in interactive mode. For example, running a single run of experiment 1 interactively (after conda activate of course):
srun -c 2 --gres=gpu:1 --pty python -m hw2.experiments run-exp -n test -K 32 64 -L 2 -P 2 -H 100
To perform multiple runs in batch mode with sbatch (e.g. for running all the configurations of an experiments), you can create your own script based on py-sbatch.sh and invoke whatever commands you need within it.
Don't request more than 2 CPU cores and 1 GPU device for your runs. The code won't be able to utilize more than that anyway, so you'll see no performance gain if you do. It will only cause delays for other students using the servers.
results folder on your local machine.
This notebook will only display the results, not run the actual experiment code (except for a demo run).run_name parameter that will also be the base name of the results file which this
notebook will expect to load.hw2/experiments.py module.
This module has a CLI parser so that you can invoke it as a script and pass in all the
configuration parameters for a single experiment run.python -m hw2.experiments run-exp to run an experiment, and not
python hw2/experiments.py run-exp, regardless of how/where you run it.from hw2.experiments import load_experiment, cnn_experiment
from cs236781.plot import plot_fit
# # Test experiment1 implementation on a few data samples and with a small model
# cnn_experiment(
# 'test_run', seed=seed, bs_train=50, batches=10, epochs=10, early_stopping=5,
# filters_per_layer=[32,64], layers_per_block=1, optimizer='Adam',
# model_type='resnet'
# )
# # There should now be a file 'test_run.json' in your `results/` folder.
# # We can use it to load the results of the experiment.
# cfg, fit_res = load_experiment('results/test_run_L1_K32-64.json')
# _, _ = plot_fit(fit_res, train_test_overlay=True)
# # And `cfg` contains the exact parameters to reproduce it
# print('experiment config: ', cfg)
In this part we will test some different architecture configurations based on our CNN and ResNet.
Specifically, we want to try different depths and number of features to see the effects these parameters have on the model's performance.
To do this, we'll define two extra hyperparameters for our model, K (filters_per_layer) and L (layers_per_block).
K is a list, containing the number of filters we want to have in our conv layers.L is the number of consecutive layers with the same number of filters to use.For example, if K=[32, 64] and L=2 it means we want two conv layers with 32 filters followed by two conv layers with 64 filters. If we also use pool_every=3, the feature-extraction part of our model will be:
Conv(X,32)->ReLu->Conv(32,32)->ReLU->Conv(32,64)->ReLU->MaxPool->Conv(64,64)->ReLU
We'll try various values of the K and L parameters in combination and see how each architecture trains. All other hyperparameters are up to you, including the choice of the optimization algorithm, the learning rate, regularization and architecture hyperparams such as pool_every and hidden_dims. Note that you should select the pool_every parameter wisely per experiment so that you don't end up with zero-width feature maps.
You can try some short manual runs to determine some good values for the hyperparameters or implement cross-validation to do it. However, the dataset size you test on should be large. If you limit the number of batches, make sure to use at least 30000 training images and 5000 validation images.
The important thing is that you state what you used, how you decided on it, and explain your results based on that.
First we need to write some code to run the experiment.
TODO:

def plot_exp_results(filename_pattern, results_dir='results'):
fig = None
result_files = glob.glob(os.path.join(results_dir, filename_pattern))
result_files.sort()
if len(result_files) == 0:

Analyze your results from experiment 1.1. In particular,
L for which the network wasn't trainable? what causes this? Suggest two things which may be done to resolve it at least partially.display_answer(hw2.answers.part5_q1)
Your answer:
in the first experiment we tested the effect of varying depth with fixed channels in a CNN model. it can be seen from the graphs that for small number of layers (2,4) increasing the depth results in better accuracy. this is because more layers (with fixed number of channels) gives more spatial resolution and ability to learn more complex features within the image.
Analyze your results from experiment 1.2. In particular, compare to the results of experiment 1.1.
display_answer(hw2.answers.part5_q2)
Your answer:
in the second experiment we tested the effect of varying width with fixed depth in a CNN model. it can be seen from the graphs that for fixed depth, increasing the width results in a minor increase in accuracy (compared to the change we saw in exp1_1 when we changed the depth). for l=2 the difference between different widths is almost negligble, and for l=4 the difference is a little bit bigger. The effect of increasing the width is minor because the number of layers is fixed and therefore the spatial resolution is fixed. this means that the model can't learn more complex features, and therefore the effect of increasing the width is minor. moving from l=2 to l=4 reuslts in better preformence for all $K$ (i.e model with l=4 and k=32 is better than model with l=2 and k=128). this implies that depth is more important than number of channels. in addition, we can see that for l=8 we get vanishing. the performence of the best models (l=4) were similiar in both experiments. gradients, similiar to what we saw in exp_1_1.
Analyze your results from experiment 1.3.
display_answer(hw2.answers.part5_q3)
Your answer:
in the third experiment we tested the effect of varying depth and width in a CNN model. it can be seen from the graphs that model with more than 4 layers in total in non_trainable in accordance to what we saw in exp1_1 and exp1_2. that leaves us with only 1 trainable model - $l=2$ $k=[64,128]$ which perfmored similiar to models from exp1_1 and exp1_2. with l=4 (which has the same total number of layers)
Analyze your results from experiment 1.4. Compare to experiment 1.1 and 1.3.
display_answer(hw2.answers.part5_q4)
Your answer:
in experiment 1.4 we tested the effect of skip connections by using Resent.
in experiment 1.1 and 1.3 we saw that models with more than 4 convolution layers in total faced vanishing
of the gradients and became non-trainable. using skip connections (in 1.4) the phenomena no longer occur,
all the model were trainable and we can train much deeper networks. we therefore conclude that the residual block,
together with batchnorm, enables more uniform flow of the graidents and prevent them from vanising or exploding.
regarding performance - as the hyperparameter space is very large (many parameters that spans a large range of values)
and the models can be sensitive to the choice of hyperparameters, in order to fully utilize the models one needs an
efficient method to tune them. we used optuna package which provides an optimization framework for efficient tuning
large number of hyper-parameters. we run multiple optimization experiments for a seleceted architectures and small number of epochs
for both resnet and cnn and based on the results wechose the parameters for the actual experiment.
on this specific dataset and with the given architectures, we see that the resnet model with the lowerst number of layers converged first. this implies that the dataset is relatively simple and can be learned by simple network. we also see that
CNN outperform Resnet (altough the difference is not high and might change with more carefull tuning of hyper-parameters). however, on different CV tasks, usually the depth that Resnet allows was proved to lead to better results than shallow networks.

Your answer:
in generall, the model did not performed well on those pictures. in the first image there are three dolphins. the model located on of the bounding box correctly, but the other two bounding boxes are not accurate. the labels is also not accurate - the model interperted the scene as persons on a surfboard, and therefore labeled the dolphins as "person" or "surfboard". this implies a bias in the dataset the model was trained on - the model was trained on a dataset with many images of persons on surfboards, and therefore when it see an object above the water it interpert it as a person on a surfboard. in the second image there are three dogs and one cat close to each other. here, the model located 2 bounding boxes over cat and dog together and labeled them as a cat. possible reasons for the poor performance are: small number of classes - even when the model located the bounding box correctly, it labeled the object not correctly. this is because the model was trained on a dataset with limited number of classes (the basic model was trained on COCO dataset which has 80 classes). another reason is occulusion - in the second image the cat is occluded by the dog, and the model failed to locate it.
Object detection pitfalls could be, for example: occlusion - when the objects are partially occlude, and thus missing important features, model bias - when a model learn some bias about an object, it could recognize it as something else in a different setup, and many others like Deformation, Illumination conditions, Cluttered or textured background and blurring due to moving objects.
TODO: Take pictures and that demonstrates 3 of the above object detection pitfalls, run inference and analyze the results.
